‘Care Is Lost When You Get Jumbled Around’—Aboriginal Grandmothers and Family Perspectives of Cultural Continuity in Healthcare as Recipients of Care in Mainstream Health Services in South Australia
Aboriginal women and their infants face substantial health disparities compared to non-Aboriginal women and their infants. Timely, effective, and culturally appropriate maternal and child healthcare can address these inequalities. However, many Aboriginal women experience fear and anxiety when using mainstream healthcare services, leading to lower attendance at perinatal appointments, often due to inadequate communication, poor service coordinati…

Interprofessional Education in Child Protection for Preservice Health and Allied Health Professionals
Health and allied health professionals are uniquely positioned to collaborate in prevention, early intervention and responses to child maltreatment.

Little is known about what interprofessional preparation health and allied health professionals receive …

How are responses to child abuse and neglect conceptualised in Australian policy
Safeguarding without stigmatising
Child abuse and neglect is an increasing international social issue. Specific challenges include the over‐representation of disadvantaged and marginalised populations, including First Nations communities. This document review explored how responses to child abuse and neglect are conceptualised in international policy and professional guidelines to identify the language that shapes strategies to address child abuse and neglect. In doing so, this r…
They Are Worth Their Weight in Gold”

Navigating and negotiating meanings of child abuse and neglect
Nurses who work with children have the opportunity to make a difference by identifying and responding to child abuse and neglect.

This paper reports one of four themes identified through inductive analysis of a qualitative study exploring nurses' perceptions and experiences of keeping children safe from abus…
Motherhood as Identity
We explored the strategies that refugee single mothers used to manage socio-emotional, physical and economic challenges of raising children during resettlement in a Western country. Ethnographic case studies of 10 families and 12 focus groups were conducted. Bourdieu’s theory of social relations informed the primary analysis. Intersectionality was adopted as a secondary analysis, attending to the agency and empowerment experienced by the particip…
Congruity and Divergence in Perceptions of Adolescent Romantic Experience Between Chinese Parents and Adolescents

One-to-one, in-depth interviews were conducted with 38 adolescents (aged 15-18 years; 26 girls, 12 boys) and 27 parents (aged 40-52 years; 16 mothers, 11 fathers) from the urban areas of a northern Chinese city. Data analysis was conducted using thematic analysis and inte…
Factors shaping parent–adolescent communication about sexuality in urban China
Within a rapidly changing cultural and socio-economic context, young people in China are increasingly engaging in romantic experiences and sexual behaviours with consequences such as unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections. Across a range of contexts, parental communication about sexuality has been recognised as protective in terms of increasing the likelihood of sexual abstinence and safer sexual practice. This study focuses on …
Maternal Child and Family Health Nurses
A scoping study
Homeless families are the fastest growing segment of the homelessness population. Homelessness services are often the first to know when children are at risk of disengagement with health, welfare and education services. Changes to Australian policy to explicitly attend to the needs of children are attempts to address the complexity of, and provide better outcomes for, homeless children. There are mounting levels of evidence describing some of the…

Its purpose is to integrate health services, nursing education and research through the optimal usage of a diverse range of potential resources in the community health system.

Applying Ecological Modeling to Parenting for Australian Refugee Families
Children in families with parents from refugee backgrounds are often viewed as a vulnerable group with increased risks of developing physical or psychological problems. However, there is very little research regarding the strategies that parents might use to parent their children in a new country while they also manage the interrelated challenges of poverty, social isolation, maternal stress, and mental ill health that often go along with resettl…
Culture it's a big term isn't it'? An analysis of child and family health nurses' understandings of culture and intercultural communication
Understandings of culture and multiculture are broad and deeply embedded in every day talk and practices. In an increasingly globalised world, how we understand and work with these terms affects how parents and their families experience health care services and the support intended by health care professionals. This is particularly important for parents who are new to Australia. In this paper we report on findings from an ethnographic study under…
